Quick, Simple, Intuitive

Unlike complicated and expensive "platforms" that have a plug-in for
performance management, this is all we do, and we do it well! We have made Talentopia
extremely easy to administer and use. With our beautiful, intuitive, activity stream-based
design, users will "just get it" without any training.

Recognition

Give credit where credit is due. And not just at review time, but every day.
When top performers see that their hard work is recognized,
they are motivated to continue doing it. And the performance bar is
raised so that everyone tries harder. We make recognition simple and easy...

Give a virtual "pat on the back" to a coworker or a team, letting everyone know about their hard work or a special accomplishment.

Award a badge to a coworker. Choose from our library (Ninja, Slugger, and many more), or create your own from an image that you upload.

Act as a mentor by giving more personal, constructive feedback to coworkers, helping them with their professional development.

Email notification lets people know as soon as they have been recognized. It also shows up in users' activity streams.

Goals

Goals are of paramount importance in any work setting, providing people with clear markers
to strive toward in the pursuit of success. We make it easy to establish, track, and manage goals.

Managers can set shared, "social" goals that apply to the entire company, or to a specific team.

Individuals can set goals for themselves, which can be private, or visible to the rest of the company.

Advisors can set individual goals for their team members.

A goal can be something very concrete, i.e. "increase sales by 10% in Q4", or more abstract, such as "always make the customer happy".

Goals are defined with a priority setting. High priority goals are displayed prominently throughout the app, keeping them top of mind.

Users are notified when goals start and end, by email and in their activity streams.

You can attach valuable rewards to a goal, providing extra motivation to people to do their part in reaching it.

Rewards

"Rewards" – possibly the most motivating word in the business world! With Talentopia,
you can offer tangible incentives, bringing out the competitive instinct that lurks inside everyone:

Rewards are an optional element of goals, so that there is a clear link between stated objectives and corresponding benefits.

Managers can offer whatever rewards they deem appropriate. Examples are gift certificates, experiences, time off from work, or cash bonuses.

Talentopia does not dictate what the rewards are, nor do we buy or sell them. Our role is to help you manage the process.

A goal can have any number of rewards associated with it. As users receive feedback linked to the goal, they earn points. Rewards are distributed according to whoever has the most rewards when the goal ends.

To ensure a level playing field, there are several company-customizable rules that prevent people from gaining an unfair advantage toward winning rewards. For example, there is a maximum number of points that any user can earn per day.
